No Horses,
But Gay OK
BOULDER, CO-The District Attorney told her the state law was vague and open to interpretation, so County Clerk Clela Rorex interpreted it the way she saw it and began issuing marriage licenses to gay couples.
So far, in a month's time, she has issued four licenses to male or female couples, including one to her own deputy clerk. All the licenses have been returned to the County Clerk's office after the weddings and duly recorded.
Despite harassment by telephone and by mail, Rorex, who also is president of the Boulder chapter of the National Organization for Women, told the ADVOCATE, "I intend to continue issuing licenses until there's something definite in the law that specifically prohibits it."
Generally, she said, public response is running about two-toone in favor of her decision, but she's gotten some "nasty phone calls," many accusing her of being gay.
One protester tried to get a marriage license for himself and his horse. They were turned down because the horse was only eight years old and did not have parental consent.
Unfavorable reaction has gone a little further than just a few fanatics and one horse lover, however. The League of Housewives, a group organized to fight the women's Equal Rights Amendment, is accusing NOW of promoting lesbianism, and NOW is in the process of preparing an answer to the charge. The Colorado County Clerk's Association asked its attorney for an opinion on Rorex's action. In an 11-page statement, he said gay marriage was "not the intent" of the law and was therefore void. He based his opinion on the first dictionary defition of the word "marriage," which usually mentions opposite sexes.
At a news conference following release of the opinion, Rorex said it was erroneously based on the assumption that common word usage determines legality.
Boulder District Attorney William Wise agrees with Rorex. Intent notwithstanding, he said, it would still take a legislative change to specifically prohibit gay marriage.
